It also comes with a helpful guidebook to gain further insight with regards to the explanations of the cards. Coincidence or is it magic? That's the fun of Animal Tarot.

In spite of the author's assurances that these totems can physically show up in the querent’s life as guides, this tarot is top heavy with North American animals so unless you live there this seems rather unlikely. However fauna from Africa, Australia, Europe, Asia, and South America put in appearances, so too do some species of marine and insect life that are found the world over. This must have cleansing bowl is made out of Selenite. As Selenite cleanses other crystals, you can use this bowl to cleanse your collection by placing them inside it. Historically, the dove has always been a symbol of peace, spiritual trinity, and grace. It appears on the Ace of Cups above a cup overflowing which embraces the energy of new beginnings in love and the tranquil feelings that come with it. Fish Some of the cards depict suffering.

It just occurred to me that for a limited time only, you can work in the fact that 2020 happens to be the Year of the Rat. Offer expires on December 31, 2020.

Crayfish are a type of crustacean that symbolize femininity and emotions. They highlight the emotional aspects of The Moon card and can correlate to the astrological sign of cancer, which is also represented by a crustacean. Dog Yes, Animal Tarot and Conjurers Choice are both favs of mine and both have mostly flown under the radar. The same symbolism is true for the snake that appears on the Seven of Cups in the top right cup on the card. The snake rests in the cup to symbolize how sexuality and earthly pleasures are one of the choices which the figure can make. Tortoise

Three layouts are described (no diagrams are given) – the 8-card Inner Totem Pole, the 3-card Archetype Spread, and the 3-card Situation Spread. Animals all have their individual beauty and wisdom which will be processed on to you through the tarot cards. Two dogs also appear on the Ten of Pentacles. The dogs can be seen as a symbol of hard work paying off and enjoying the fruits of your labor. Dove The divinatory meanings outlined in this guidebook fall well inside the boundaries of 'standard tarot definitions’. They are clear and sharply observed; they easily connect the qualities of the animals with the interpretations. On The Lovers tarot card, a snake is coiled around an apple tree on the feminine side. The card speaks about the story of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden. The snake can be seen to symbolize temptation, sexuality, and choices.It's a very clever application of an old idea, with a great climax. The cards are excellent quality, and this is the best teaching of the 'move' I've ever seen.

A salamander can be seen by the feet of the King of Wands as he confidently sits on his throne and surveys the natural world. Salamanders are fire spirits who represent transformational fire energy. It is believed they used to fire-walk and many reside around volcanoes. It appears on the King of Wands, the suit associated with the element of fire. Snake It really goes into the depths of all possible interpretations of the cards, which will in turn give you great insights into any questions you might be having.A bull is depicted on the throne of the King of Pentacles tarot card. The bull is concerned with the astrological sign of Taurus who is a lover of indulgence, materialism, and luxury. Bulls tend to be determined and stubborn, which mirrors the King of Pentacles who is a successful leader through their hard work and ambitious drive. Cat Although speculative, the tortoise can be seen as the creature that the King of Pentacles is resting his foot on. Like the tortoise, the King of Pentacles is associated with wisdom, achievements through hard work, and expertise in their field. Since the tortoise is a slow-moving creature, this can imply that the character of the King of Pentacles is also slow-moving, methodical, and intentional with their approach. Wolf The artist, Eugene Smith, uses a natural palette – greens, browns, blues, greys, with an occasional splash of colour from flowers or from human constructions such as vehicles and buildings. Additionally, the instruments of the suits are clearly man-made: the Wands have scarlet ribbons flying from them, the golden chalices are studded with jewels, the pentacles and swords are wrought from metal and decorated with with gold.

I guess because they don't really fit into a workers set but are great for hobbyists or to leave out for guests to inquire about them. The Wildwood Tarot has a natural way of helping you guide your way through life using your intuition and offers a true sense of clarity on various issues you might have been struggling with. The Wolf Song Cards have a Native American theme and features 60 attractive paintings of animals from Northern America in their natural settings. Available as cards-only or as a book set. The instruments of the suits – Wands, Cups, Swords, and Pentacles actually appear in the cards and the animals are shown interacting with them. The artwork illustrated on this cards is beautiful and truly enhances your ability to listen to your intuition.The artwork is highly stylised – with heavy outlines and beautifully textured dimensions to the images. The animals are depicted accurately and with genuine sensitivity. There is very little anthropomorphism in the cards – the imposition or reading of human emotions into the actions of an animal. Instead, in a clever reversal, the actions of animals are related to the experiences of humans. The images are quite affecting – the tragedy of humanity's encroachment into wild places, and the painful end results of actions motivated by greed, or without thought for the consequences occasionally appear here. So too does the majesty of animals living as they should in their natural habitat, and the cunning of those animals who have adapted to our urban encroachments. The Animal Totem Tarot comes with a guidebook as well, so you will be able to find out all the meanings and possible interpretations of the cards.
